Abstract: Systems and processes for implementation at an autonomous-driving vehicle of transportation. exemplary processes include obtaining, by a tangible human-machine interface, an autonomous-vehicle-passenger communication, and obtaining, by a hardware-based processing unit, context data comprising learned-passenger data based on prior activity of an autonomous-vehicle-passenger. Processes also include determining, based on the autonomous-vehicle-passenger communication and the context data, at least one of (i) an appropriate autonomous-driving function, (ii) appropriate assistance to provide to the autonomous-vehicle-passenger, and (iii) appropriate information to provide to the autonomous-vehicle-passenger.

Abstract: One general aspect includes a vehicle including: a passenger compartment for a user; a sensor located in the passenger compartment, the sensor configured to obtain a speech request from the user; a memory configured to store a specific intent for the speech request; and a processor configured to at least facilitate: obtaining a speech request from the user; attempting to classify the specific intent for the speech request via a voice assistant; determining the voice assistant cannot classify the specific intent from the speech request; after determining the voice assistant cannot classify the specific intent, interpreting the specific intent via one or more natural language processing (NLP) methodologies; implementing the voice assistant to fulfill the speech request or accessing one or more personal assistants to fulfill the speech request or some combination thereof, after the one or more NLP methodologies has interpreted the specific intent.
